What's the best historical comparison to this insanity?

The Chinese Cultural Revolution gets tossed around quite a bit as does Pol Pot's Year Zero. This is purely idealogically driven stupidity/mental illness. But remember, it's the Republicans that have moved to the extreme.

Recently? Venezuela under Chavez.

Prosperous nation.
Elected Communist by popular vote
Free shit to the poor . . . Lots of happy poor people
Free education (indoctrination)
Energy crisis - price of oil dropped
Massive inflation
Businesses accused of price gouging go out of business.
Government nationalizes oil industry - incompetent government makes things worse.
Constitution changed to make Chavez dictator
Scarcities of food, basic essentials
Middle class eliminated and everyone suffers.
Ruling class prospers

Lenin before Communism, “The worse, the better.”

Yes.
